He is an international performing and recording artist, author, music educator, app creator (Chord Atlas) and sound meditation facilitator with over 20 years’ experience in the music world. Adrian has traveled extensively—exploring sound, language, musical culture and how they affect individual and collective wellbeing. He is a student of Maestro Manuel Rufino and a representative of Music That Heals, offering musical experiences to thousands of people in hospitals, hospices, elder care facilities, prisons and children’s centers.
Adrian teaches guitar, voice, music theory, songwriting and the principles of sound healing. His workshops, lessons and private sessions draw upon both technical academic expertise and ancient spiritual knowledge passed down by elders of the traditions, including his teacher Maestro Manuel Rufino of the Golden Drum in New York.
Adrian regularly facilitates and takes part in healing retreats and workshops around the world, including service for hospitals, senior centers, and children’s programs. He is a passionate educator who understands that creativity and heart-centered self-expression are keys to a healthy life.
Adrian offers workshops on the principles of sound healing, opening your voice, guitar and music theory, meditation, song study, poetry/songwriting/composition, music for children, and psychophysical exercises (i.e. yoga/pranayama).
